Best Roast Cod With Leeks Plum Tomatoes And Wilted Spinach Recipes

SHEET PAN ROASTED COD

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic, crushed red pepper flakes and the zest of the lemon. Add the cherry tomatoes, shallots, broccolini and torn sourdough. Season with salt and pepper and mix well to coat.
• Scoop the vegetables and bread out onto a large, rimmed baking sheet, leaving some of the flavored oil at the bottom of the bowl. Halve the lemon and add to the pan, cut side down. Roughly crumble the feta into large hunks and dot over the vegetables and roast for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the cod into two equal pieces and add them to the remaining oil in the bowl. Toss well to coat, season with salt and pepper and leave in the bowl to marinate while the vegetables roast.
• Add the fish to the vegetables and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
• Transfer to plates and scatter with basil and parsley. Roughly tear the radicchio onto the plate next to the fish and squeeze over the roasted lemon. Drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

ROAST COD WITH LEEKS, PLUM TOMATOES, AND WILTED SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees with two racks centered. Spray two 12-by-14-inch roasting or jelly-roll pans with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine ginger, soy sauce, lime juice, olive oil, and pepper. Set aside.
• Arrange leeks and tomatoes in one pan, and cod (if using fillets, place skin-side down) in the second pan. Brush all liberally with ginger marinade. Sprinkle all with salt and pepper. Cook 10 minutes. Turn vegetables with a spatula for even browning; brush all again with marinade. Continue to cook until cod is opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes more. Transfer cod to a serving plate; keep warm. Continue to cook tomatoes and leeks until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add spinach to pan; cook just long enough to wilt, about 5 minutes. To serve, arrange spinach on each plate. Add 1 cod fillet; divide tomato-leek mixture evenly between plates. Serve hot.
